Yellow Peril

Sorry about the late post once again, this is my first time back home since lunch time yesterday.

Zaal was clobbered by a tree after pDoomshaper survived 4 Last Stand'ed, feat-assisted Immortals charging him.  It was the stuff of legends.  I have to say that playing against Zaal is strange as most of what you plan to kill dies at the end of the Zaal player's turn anyway.  Loads of models just die and you're left there standing bewildered as to what happened since you made no attacks yourself.  He's certainly not a warlock to bring expensive infantry against.  However, I remain the Yellow Peril; cries of "Next time, Palmer, next time!" were heard.  I need to remember that Immortals have Vengeance, that left Mulg open to get slammed and then there was no Protective Fit. =(

Once again my Runeshapers worked really well, though it helped that they made a whole slew of Tough checks (totally unnecessary to both our game plans) and blew up the Bog Trogs/Void Spirit.  I can't wait to test out three units of them along with the utterly broken character solo - does Warmachine have character solos as broken as Aptimus Marketh and Janissa Stonetide?  Maybe they've been around so long they've just merged into the background... *cough* Gorman *cough*

The Glasgow Summer League has now concluded, and the winner is... Michael Murray!  He fought a very entertaining game against Jim on Tuesday night to take the league crown.  Prizes will be handed out this week.  The final standings for places are:

1.) Michael Murray (Cryx)
2.) Jim Lawrence (Circle)
3.) George Halbert (Cryx)
Everyone else.
